Ed Brubaker and Sean Phillips’ Criminal heads to Amazon Studios

The fact Criminal hasn’t been a television series or film yet is… criminal. The fantastic comic series by Ed Brubaker and Sean Phillips looks like it’ll finally get its chance through Amazon Studios which is finalizing a dead for a tv adaptation.

Brubaker will be an executive producer for the series which is a set of interlocking crime stories. While each volume has been able to be be read on their own, each ties into the others creating a much larger story with events in volumes mentioned in each other.

Criminal launched in 2006 running for ten issues. It has been published by Marvel Comics’ Icon imprint as well as Image Comics. The five volumes have run for 38 issues and numerous collections and graphic novels. The latest chapter was released in the Image! #9 anthology in December 2022.
